ABOUT THIS CHANNEL

Hi, my name is Yuliia, I am a former Fulbright Fellow from Ukraine and this is my channel where I interview Fulbrighters from all over the world. I came to the U.S. in 2015 to pursue Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering at Western Michigan University. After graduation I stayed in the U.S. with my husband, who also used to be a Fulbrighter and stayed at Western Michigan University for Ph.D.

Fulbright Student Organisation at Western Michigan University is one of the biggest Fulbright communities on campus in the U.S. And it is a truly incredible and welcoming group of intelligent people from all over the world. I want to share experience of being a Fulbrighter with you and inspire you to take this challenge yourself!

This channel is for:

Anyone who wants to broad their outlook and meet amazing people from all over the world!
